About the video
This is a new technique for 30X40 Design Workshop which we’re excited to use on our Squid Cove Project here on the coast of Maine. While it’s a common construction detail employed in the Pacific Northwest, here in New England there are relatively few examples or contractors versed in this expressive yet humble material expression.
I created this video to share with you our findings having cast our sample panel and will update the video with a link to the finished product once it’s complete.
Meet the instructors
Eric Reinholdt is a founder of Thirty by Forty Design Workshop which was established in June 2013 in a home he designed overlooking Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island. In 2016, he designed and constructed the Long Studio to complement the Longhouse and serve as a full-scale model of his design principles and the latest in building science; this is the home for 30X40.
“My work celebrates humble materials, subtle contrasts and finely-crafted details. I have a strong interest in modern regionalist design, local materials and familiar building forms juxtaposed against modern, open floor plans. I employ a minimalist, Shaker-like palette of details inspired by the site and natural surroundings.”
